New York Times Film Critic Visits Campus

New York Times film critic A. O. Scott came to campus in February and gave a public talk about “Criticism as a Way of Life.” While on campus, Scott taught a master class in nonfiction writing and met individually with selected writing students. His visit was part of the Distinguished Visiting Writers Series, which also presented readings by fiction writer Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni and poet Jean Valentine this spring.
